This guide lists all available regular and hidden achievements (trophies) in Cyberpunk 2077’s expansion Phantom Liberty and provides guides and strategies for how to unlock them all!
How Achievements Work in Phantom Liberty
This segment of the guide is spoiler-free!
In each game you play, there are certain milestones you can unlock. On some platforms, like CD Projekt Red’s own GOG, they are called Achievements, while on consoles, for example, they are called “trophies”. In any case, these are accolades you can earn by completing certain missions and playing through specific content.
The Phantom Liberty expansion to Cyberpunk 2077 brings its own set of unique achievements you can earn and unlock. They are unrelated to the achievements from the base game.
To earn the Phantom Liberty achievements on any platform, you must first purchase the Phantom Liberty expansion. The achievements are directly related to content exclusively available in Dogtown or otherwise part of the expansion.
While the achievements serve no purpose other than bragging rights, you can get some goodies by fulfilling the requirements for achievements in the form of skill upgrades, attribute points, weapons, cyberware and other valuable loot.
There are a total of 13 new achievements you can get in Phantom Liberty. A few of the achievements are hidden or secret. You will only earn them by completing a specific task. This is usually related to unlocking a secret ending or progressing through a key point in the story.
You can earn all achievements on any difficulty mode. They are not related to the level of challenge you choose to play at. It should take you between 20 and 35 hours depending on how quickly you approach and how much you follow this guide vs how much you explore on your own and have fun with Dogtown and Phantom Liberty.

Tips for earning Achievements in Phantom Liberty
In this section, I will share tips and walkthroughs on how to complete each one of the 13 achievements. Some of the achievements in the game are very easy to get and you’ll get without even trying.
The following segment contains spoilers for Cyberpunk 2077 and its expansion. The nature of completing these achievements requires that I provide some spoilers in the tips so you can complete them.
All the President’s Men
This is a main story achievement. You will unlock it early on in Dogtown when you save Rosalind Myers from the burning wreckage. There is no way to miss or skip it as you play through the story.
Arachnophobia
To earn Arachnophobia, you have to progress enough through the main story. This achievement is granted after you defeat the Chimera boss in the museum that goes “crazy” when Songbird attempts to control it. There is no way to miss or skip it.
Judgement Day
To earn this achievement, you have to clear three areas in Dogtown marked with the “Increased Criminal Activity” icon. Each one of these areas features a strong NPC (boss) near the end and they usually also drop an iconic item.
The APB is Not Enough
To earn this achievement, you have to cause havoc on the streets of Dogtown. Fight long enough to get five stars from the local police alert and the achievement will be unlocked.
Dogtown does not allow NCPD, so you will be fighting Barghest militia up to four stars. When you prove to be a hard-to-zero target and a fifth star lights up, MaxTac will actually arrive. Yeah, they do operate in Dogtown.
Spin Doctor
To earn this achievement, you have to complete the main story mission “Run This Town”. It is a late main job in Dogtown given to you by Mr. Hands. It doesn’t matter how you complete it and what decisions you make during it.
Dirty Deeds
To earn the Dirty Deeds achievement, you have to complete all ten Gigs available in Dogtown. All gigs are given to you by Mr. Hands. While some will be revealed when you approach their starter area, other gigs will be unlocked after you progress through the story and/or gain enough street cred.
You can easily track the number of completed gigs by hovering over the “shaking hands” icon on the map, in the middle of The Heavy Hearts club in Dogtown – that’s where Mr. Hands is located.
Easy Come, Easy Go
To earn this one, you have to Steal the Arasaka medical truck or deliver 10 vehicles to El Capitan. The courier missions can spawn inside Dogtown or anywhere in Night City. Some missions involve vehicle combat, others just offer a time-limited bonus objective.
To get the achievement, you have to complete seven of these courier missions and unlock and complete a special job from El Capitan called “Baby Take Me Home”.
At the end of that mission, you will also earn a new weaponized vehicle: the Outlaw “Weiler”. We have a full walkthrough of the “Baby Take Me Home” mission from Muamar “El Capitan” Reyes.
Relic Ruler
To earn Relic Ruler, you have to discover all nine Militech Data Terminal Locations in Dogtown. We have a full guide to the Relic Tree and how to find the terminals.
You will stumble upon most of the Dataterms by accident while you are doing a gig, clearing an “Increased Criminal Activity” area, or just exploring Dogtown. Once you come up close to a Militech Data Terminal in Dogtown, it will appear on your radar and you will start hearing a specific sound.
King of Cups
To earn King of Cups, you have to make specific choices in the main storyline. Everything starts with your decision to help Reed capture Songbird during the main job “Firestarter”.
When you are with Songbird at the Relic, choose to Betray Songbird: “One more second option.
Later, at the end of the “Somewhat Damaged” main job, when you talk to Songbird in the core, select the option to “Kill SoMi: Ok, I’ll do it”. This is literally you fulfilling her wish.
We have a detailed walkthrough for the main job “Somewhat Damaged” where we explain every possible choice and the outcome it leads to. You can also use our step-by-step walkthrough for unlocking the King of Cups Ending in Phantom Liberty.
An interesting fact to note is that the four different secret achievements for the unique endings of the Phantom Liberty storyline bear the same names as the four new tarot cards available in Dogtown.
King of Pentacles
This is related to one of the possible ending scenarios to the Phantom Liberty storyline where you have to side with Reed during “Firestarter”. Later, at the end of “Somewhat Damaged”, when you talk to Songbird in the core, refuse to zero her and wait for Reed to come to get her.
For more details, read our detailed walkthrough for how to get the King of Pentacles Ending.
King of Wands
This is a secret achievement for one of the possible endings of Phantom Liberty’s storyline. To unlock it, you have to side with Songbird during the main job “Firestarter”. Choose Betray Reed: I’m with you.
Later, at the end of the main job “The Killing Moon”, pick up Songbird and carry her to the shuttle. Don’t call Reed.
When you see Reed coming to you, choose to lay Songbird down on the ground and then refuse to give her to Reed. You will have to fight and defeat Reed.
We have a full walkthrough of “The Killing Moon” with explanations of every possible choice and the available outcomes. We’ve also got an easy-to-follow summary of all steps you have to make in our guide to unlocking the King of Wands Ending.
King of Swords
This is another possible ending to the main story in Dogtown. To get it, betray Reed and side with Songbird during “Firestarter”. Later, during “The Killing Moon” mission, choose to accept Reed’s call at the end when you are about to get out of the train. The final important choice is to lay Songbird down and allow Reed to take her.
If you need more detailed instructions, check out our walkthrough for how to unlock the King of Swords Ending.
The Tower
The Tower is an achievement for discovering the new secret ending to the Cyberpunk 2077 main story. It is for the base game but is only accessible if you own Phantom Liberty and complete its story.
After completing Phantrom Liberty, you will have two more missions to play. The first one is called “Who Wants to Live Forever”. To get it, you have to make sure Songbird is alive and in the hands of FIA:
- If you side with Reed during “Firestarter”: At the end of “Somewhat Damaged”, do not agree to fulfill Songbird’s request and keep her alive. (The King of Pentacles achievement path)
- If you side with Songbird during “Firestarter”: At the end of “The Killing Moon”, allow Reed to take her. (the King of Swords achievement path)
After “Who Wants to Live Forever”, you will unlock the mission that grants you this achievement – “Things Done Changed”. Complete it to earn The Tower.
We have gathered everything about all the different endings of Phantom Liberty in one guide.
